About Branwell Manor
Here at Branwell Manor, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Dewsbury, Kirklees. Our home supports people with learning disabilities and autism, including younger adults, and we also offer respite care for those who need a short break or some additional support at certain points in their lives. We understand that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a person or family will ever make. We do not take that lightly. From the moment someone walks through our door, whether they are moving in permanently or joining us for a short stay, we want them to feel genuinely welcome and at ease. This is their home, and we work hard to make sure it feels that way. The people we support have varied needs, interests and personalities, and we think that is something to celebrate rather than manage. We take time to get to know each person properly, finding out what matters to them, how they like to spend their time, and what kind of support works best for them. Care here is not one size fits all. Our team works closely with residents, their families and other professionals to make sure that support plans are meaningful and regularly reviewed. We believe good communication is at the heart of everything we do, and we encourage families to stay involved and in contact at every stage. We are proud that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us as Good. That reflects the genuine effort our staff put in every single day, and it gives families reassurance when they are considering us for their loved one. If you would like to find out more about life at Branwell Manor or arrange a visit, we would be very happy to hear from you.
